A Post-contentious Turning Point for the Contentious French? Crisis Without Protest in France
2018
International audience; This chapter shows that the ‘contentious French’ may not be that contentious anymore. The economic crisis provides a unique chance to argue that a post-contentious turning point is emerging in spite of a long-standing tradition of protesting. Yet the chapter suggests that this post-contentious turning point is not bringing about acquiescence but opens space for new forms of political participation, especially in connection with resources acquired through employment and educational track. In this case, we find a more extensive engagement in online activism and non-institutional forms of political participation, that is, the two forms of political participation that ar…
Actos discrecionales, actos políticos y actos graciables: naturaleza jurídica del acto de otorgamiento de indulto
2016
La naturaleza jurídica del acto del Gobierno que otorga el indulto ha sido objeto de constante reflexión doctrinal y jurisprudencial. La posibilidad de encuadrar al indulto como acto administrativo o acto político, como acto discrecional o acto graciable, lleva consigo una construcción teórico jurídica sobre la determinación de la naturaleza jurídica de cada una de las tipologías citadas, para poder establecer los elementos que configuran a cada una de ellas y, desde éstos, llegar a afirmar o excluir su identidad con los elementos que configuran el acto de otorgamiento del indulto. The legal nature of the government granting clemency has been a matter of doctrinal and jurisprudential debate…
La dynamique concurrentielle, un cadre théorique pour analyser la stratégie des acteurs publics

De l’introspection à la prospection : transformation organisationnelle collective d’un Tiers-Lieu Culturel. Cas de La Friche la Belle de Mai
2022
Le rapport 2021 de France Tiers-Lieux intitulé « Nos territoires en action. Dans Les Tiers- Lieux on fabrique notre avenir » souligne le nombre croissant de ces espaces. On en dénombre plus de 2500 en 2021 et l’on en prévoit près de 3500 en 2022. 27% d’entre eux sont qualifiés de culturels. Alors que les contours de cet objet restent encore flous (Besson, 2018), il est un autre angle d’analyse moins souvent adopté mais qui peut contribuer à le caractériser. Il s’agit de la dynamique collective du tiers-lieu culturel en tant que structure. Nous cherchons dans cette communication à comprendre comment cette dynamique peut émerger et se construire dans un contexte de remobilisation collective. …
Activisme actionnariat - La guerre de procurations entre Agrium Inc. et Jana Partners LLC
2018
National audience; Ce cas a pour objectif d’illustrer l’activisme actionnarial exercé par un fonds spéculatif. Il est centré sur la guerre de procurations entre Agrium Inc., une société canadienne cotée qui produit des engrais, notamment de la potasse, et Jana Partners LLC, un fonds d’investissement spéculatif. Jana Partners LLC avait pour objectif d’accroître la performance financière et la valeur d’Agrium Inc. Pour ce faire, il a acquis plus de 5 % du capital-actions et il vise à faire élire cinq administrateurs de son choix au sein du conseil d’administration d’Agrium Inc. en vue d’influencer les décisions prises par celui-ci. Il est rare qu’une telle guerre de procurations prenne place …
Gender differences in child and adolescent daily activities : a cross-national time use study
2021
This study used 2009–2015 time-diary data to examine gender differences in daily activities among children and adolescents aged 10–17 in Finland, Spain and the UK ( N = 3517). In all three countries, boys were significantly more involved in screen-based activities and exercising and girls in domestic work, non-screen educational activities and personal care. Gender differences in socializing time were only significant in the UK, with girls socializing more than boys. Gender gaps within countries were largest in domestic work (UK: 60%; Finland: 58%; Spain: 48%) and exercising (UK: 57%; Finland: 36%; Spain: 27%), followed by educational time (UK: 35%; Finland: 34%; Spain: 18%) and screen-bas…
The activity-based costing method developments: state-of-the art and case study
2008
International audience; This paper analyses the management accounting applications which try to improve the Activity-based Costing method. In the first part, we describe them using the Strategic Management Accounting stream. Then, we present the main features of these applications. In the second part, we examine in details two of these features: The widening of the analysis perimeter and the relevant level of details to analyse the costs. Then, we analyse several proposals: Customer Profitability Analysis (CPA), Interorganizational Cost Management (IOCM), Resource Consumption Accounting (RCA) and Time-driven ABC (TDABC). Finally, we describe an experience observed in the IT supply European …
Can absence restore authenticity? The case of Strasbourg Christmas Market
2023
The Strasbourg Christmas Market (MNS) was greatly impacted by the pandemic in 2020. This research delves into the role of absence in the consumption experience through fifteen semi-structured interviews with regular MNS attendees and ethnographic observations of the MNS's iconic locations. Our findings indicate that individuals, affected by two lockdowns and the pandemic's social and economic repercussions, are eager to rediscover the city without overbidding. The absence reinforces the imaginative value of the MNS, imparting renewed significance. The authentic heritage of Strasbourg's historic center appears to have been reclaimed and compensates for the void. The Christmas market is prese…
Acute Effects on Impact Accelerations Running with Objects in the Hand
2021
Amateur runners usually run carrying implements in their hands (keys, a mobile phone, or a bottle of water). However, there is a lack of literature about the effects of different handloads on impact accelerations. Thus, this study aimed to analyse the effects of carrying different objects in the hand on impact accelerations during running. Nineteen male recreational runners (age 24.3 ± 6.8 years, training volume of 25 ± 7.38 km/week) performed twenty minutes of running on a treadmill at 2.78 m/s with four different conditions: no extra weight, with keys, with a mobile phone, and with a bottle of water. Impact acceleration and spatio-temporal parameters were analysed through a wireless triax…
Toxicity of boric acid to Blattella germanica (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae) and analysis of residues in several organs
2001
1373-7503 (Print) Journal Article; Pestiferous cockroach species are associated closely with humans and are important from medical and public health points of view. Conventional insecticides have been used widely to control cockroaches which have developed resistance to these compounds. Thus, interest has again centered on lesser-used compounds such as boric acid. Boric acid has been used as an insecticide for many years, especially against cockroach. Its mode of action on insects has not been satisfactorily established. In Algeria, Blattella germanica (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae) is a serious pest in the urban environment and their infestation were controlled for many years by organophospha…
